A sunny but very windy day today. I laid low but did go visit son and the pups. Mr. tough-guy puppy is getting the snip job Wednesday as he's been recently 'marking' his territory. Bad dog!
Son and I have a shooting date for Wednesday too.
Howdy, Kathy.
It’s looking mighty pretty up there today. Crisp blue skies and DRY streets! It’s even fairly warm. I wish you’d felt better so you could have enjoyed the day more.
At least it sounds like you’re finally on the mend. Now if you could just get a good night’s sleep!

Aha, sounds like you’re having weather we’re REAL familiar with. LOL! That’s how it was here yesterday. Today we had just a little breeze.
So the wild man is about to get his “big boy” surgery, is he? He should have behaved himself. Tsk, tsk.
Ok, I’m going to keep all appendages crossed for luck that nothing postpones your shooting fun Wed.!
Glad to hear your day was good!
Ours was as well. A nice, quiet day with beautiful weather to enjoy.
May this fallen hero rest in peace....
For those who love military history, here’s a video about Jack Widowsky, B-29 Navigator during WWII. Jack died last week at age 95.

Jack Widowsky served as the navigator on the B-29 Top Secret at Wendover and Tinian during World War II. He participated in the mission to bomb Hiroshima as the navigator of the Big Stink, which was the backup strike plane on Iwo Jima. He flew as the navigator of the Laggin Dragon, one of the weather reconnaissance planes, during the mission to Nagasaki. In this interview, he discusses his time in the 509th Composite Group. He begins by narrating his introduction to the 509th after enlisting in the Air Force. He describes the copious traveling he did as he and his crew trained to be a part of the team that would eventually drop the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Two important themes of this interview are the intense security and secrecy the project necessitated, as well as the jovial camaraderie enjoyed by Widowsky and the other members of the 509th.

Howdy, LUV.
Our kittehs approve of Simon, too, but there’s no way to get them all in one shot. LOL
Hope you had a good day.

Hey, there, radu! Wouldn’t it be something if you could get them all in one shot,though! LOL!
My day was great and I hope yours was too! How did the cassarole turn out. It made me hungry just reading about it!
It's always sad to hear of the passing of another from the Greatest Generation. May he rest in peace.
RIP Tonk
Shoo, it’s almost impossible to get ONE to sit still long enough to get a pic, let alone all 40. LOL
Glad you had a great day.
It was a pretty nice one here. It was quiet and the weather was really nice.
The casserole was delicious, as it always is. The best part is it’s simple to make. I like simple and tasty. A combination that’s hard to beat. LOL!
Good night, Conor. Sleep well.
I hope you have a good week!
Sounds like the perfect combination to me, too! Maybe if we have a cooking show...hint-hint...you can share it. :)
